Confrontation with the Hydra
The basics
The Hydra Showdown is a mini-tournament that takes place every week and involves 5 Clans. The goal is simple: earn more showdown points than your opponent. To do this, you must participate in the hydra battles, inflict damage, and use multipliers to your advantage (more information on this in the next section).
Only players who are part of a Clan—a natural requirement, since you cannot access the Hydra battle otherwise—and who are at least level 45 can participate. Clans must have at least 10 members of level 45 or higher. The Clan in question must also have earned at least 50 Clan Activity Stars in the last 7 days. After the initial launches, Clans will be matched against each other based on their average performance in the last 4 Hydra battles, to ensure a fair and equitable matchup.
Important Note : The first Hydra clash will be launched in test mode. This means that only the top 3,000 Clans in the game (based on their ranking) that meet the above conditions will be able to participate. We will then introduce the Clash to the other Raid Clans.
Points and multipliers on the confrontation
The damage you inflict on the Hydra will serve as the basis for the confrontation points you earn, but good management of multipliers will be the key to victory. These multipliers are only available the first time you use a Hydra key in a specific difficulty, and as their name suggests, they increase the number of points you earn by a specific value, which you can see in the list below:
- Normal: No multiplier
- Difficult: x2
- Brutal: x3
- Nightmare: x4
Awards
Only the Clans that occupy the top 3 places in the Hydra Showdown will receive rewards. Of course, winning the showdown will earn you better showdown chests. In addition, players must participate in the Hydra Showdown and earn a certain number of showdown points before they can claim any rewards, and the more points you earn, the greater your final reward will be.
The chests from the Hydra encounter will be similar to the Hydra chests overall, but the artifacts they contain will be replaced with stone skins and protective accessories that complement the respective artifact sets and provide additional bonuses for 7, 8, and 9 pieces equipped by a single champion. In addition, both sets will receive a bonus in update 7.40. You can find the new stats in the infographic below:
Clan vs. Clan Tournaments Update
Update 7.40 also brings new tournament objectives to CvC tournaments and expands several existing objectives. You can check the list below:
- Iron Twins (New Objectives)
- Demon's Necropolis (new objectives)
- Ghost of the Shogun (new objectives)
- Ascension artifacts and accessories (added to equipment objectives)
- Obtain Perfect Souls (added to Champion Objectives)
- Earn badges during arena battles (added to arena objectives)
Additionally, Tiers 2-6 (Clan Tiers and Personal Tiers) will be expanded to include more clans and players.
Demon Lord Quick Fight (Clan Boss)
We know that with the arrival of new features in Raid, our players need to spend more and more time in the game. We are taking steps to address this issue, including with the Quick Combat mode for the Demon Lord.
The concept is simple: when you start a quick fight, the game takes into account your champion's power, your team composition, skill presets, and more. and simulates a fight against the Demon Lord in seconds.
To unlock this feature, you must deal enough damage to obtain the final boss clan chest in a single boss clan battle. The quick battle is specific to the difficulty, but you will unlock it retroactively for all lower difficulties if you unlock it for a higher difficulty (this will mainly apply to high-level players).
